A friend gave me this the other day they found it in an opp shop. It is in perfect condition.
Is it more valuable like this or does it have the same value as if it was not in this pack?
Regards,
Horamakhet.

Nice stamps, Horamkhet.
You can see by the last stamp, why this Island is sometimes affectionately known as "Dog Island".

These are strange items, I have found,
they look great, and the packaging tends to want you
to keep intact, to preserve their original presentation.
However, not particularly sought after by the public, going by
what I have seen in auctions, and bundles of "stamp packs"
tend to go well below face.
I think collectors buy them to remove the stamps.
This is a generalisation, mind you, but I havn't witnessed anybody
who collects them, in fact some Australian have a packet warning
not for long term use.
This only applies to Australian packs.
